Chermoula as Marinade
The Moroccan herb-and-spice paste, used the way tradition intended — as a marinade first, sauce second. Best on white fish and lamb.
Ingredients
4servings
- Use the chermoula recipe from the Sauce Library
- Fresh cilantro and parsley (large handful each)
- Garlic, cumin, paprika, lemon juice, olive oil
- Salt to taste
Method
1.Blend the chermoula
Blend the herbs, garlic, spices, lemon juice, and olive oil into a bright green paste. Reserve a clean portion to serve.
2.Marinate briefly
Coat white fish for 30 minutes to 2 hours — no longer, or the lemon will start to cook the surface. Lamb can go up to overnight. Spoon the reserved clean portion over after cooking.
